Paraphilia

experience of intense sexual arousal to atypical objects, situations, or individuals
(Redirected from Normophilia)

Paraphilia is a word used in sociology and medicine. A paraphilia is when someone gets very sexually aroused by something considered unusual. Paraphilias often involve things or people who do not consent to being involved, or cannot consent.

Some examples include:

Homosexuality used to be considered a paraphilia, but this is no longer the case in a lot of countries.

The opposite of a paraphilia is a normophilia, which is a "normal" sexual interest.
